YEp, that makes sense too, as, come to think of it I"ve seen such
things in STacy's messages elsewhere as well.  Turned
one guy into bw and made sure he got the y2k patched
version, but haven't seen him around for quite awhile since
he's been working elsewhere.  Think I played with it a bit.

I'd have to look, but think I only have the y2k patched ver
available here.

Regards,
           Richard
